both are valid approaches in my book. freebsd tracks things like that, where 6-stable is the latest stable stuff on the trunk and releases are cut off of that tag (RELENG_6 really I think). I have mentioned this before as one of the release strategies that ought to be supported but I think there are bigger fish to fry atm. Meaning the current setup works for this, you just need to adjust for it manually I believe, the release plugin will not guess your naming strategy.
*-SNAPSHOT as Dennis mentions does mean something different in my book, where -SNAPSHOT is tacked on all the micro releases as well for development and a finer grained version management strategy. 2.1-SNAPSHOT could really get you into trouble if you are using it for 2.1.0, 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, etc...any kinda api change in there and you'll be having a harder time tracking down what updated dependency module might not have had the latest snapshot deployed. cheers, jesse On 10/18/06, Dennis Lundberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

To me 2.1-SNAPSHOT means something that will be called 2.1 when it will be released. If you are on a 2.1.0, 2.1.1 , 2.1.2 course, then the next upcoming release is 2.1.3. The version number in the pom should therefor be 2.1.3-SNAPSHOT -- Dennis Lundberg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
